Hiya :)
I hope you don't mind me joining in a bit, I've tried some pinging
here:
Laptop = L
Desk top = D
Ping loopback address 127.0.0.1
L - sent 4 received 4 lost 0% average 0ms
D - same
Ping own address
L - same
D - same
Ping gateway
L - sent 4 received 4 lost 0% ave 4ms
D - same
Could not wait:
D pinging SB 4 4 0 1ms
L pinging SB 4 4 0 179ms / 5ms / 7ms
To work :)

Which device is going through an SB as a wireless bridge?
I can recall that ping times through the SB weren't bad, 1-4 ms.
As I said, speed doesn't seem to be the problem, something else is.

Ah I'm still at the starting blocks I'm afraid, not got as far a using
the SB as a bridge yet, just sorting getting the things talking to each
other through the router with no low level cock ups at the moment.
Still getting 25% loss now and then when pinging the laptop from the
desk top but the

Mark, I take it you get no losses, when pinging?
No losses that I can recall with the SB as a bridge. It seems the
first ping is the longest, something needs to wake up to respond to
further pings.

BTW, after the original setup you can go back to network setup by
holding the LEFT button. But if wireless bridging is turned on I don't
see a way to turn it off. Maybe if I would connect it to a wired
network so I'm able to select wired networking, then later changing
wireless network again -

OK, so I need to plug something in to be able to turn it off. I'll check
if it's enough with just plugging in a cable, or a cable connected to
something powered on - I guess the former.

If you don't have anything plugged in it was never enabled in the first

When I just plugged in a cable, nothing happened, as you wrote. If it
was connected to something powered I got that question, and could
disable bridging - which was enabled before.
When I earlier checked Current Network Settings it said Bridge

In my experience and with some research I don't believe your router will
see the MAC address of the network device bridged through your SB3. I've
used multiple routers with multiple different bridge wireless clients
all with the same results.

In this case, you may have problems with a router trying to provide a
dhcp ip mapped to a specific MAC address when the device is behind the
SB3 bridge.
In small environments, there is no need to use dhcp unless you are
moving devices between networks (i.e. laptop).

Mark,
Debug your network troubles at a lower level, since the lowest layers
are required to work correctly before higher services can. Forget
samba, browsers, etc. for the time being.
This could be a number of problems. Your fast to WAN, slow to LAN
speeds can be misleading because your

I have some work to do this afternoon and will start attacking this
later.
Thanks for your help.

Well cancel the red alert.
As soon as I wire the Ubuntu PC directly into the router, everything
works as expected. File sharing from/to, SlimServer web GUI,
everything.
This points the finger at the SB3, unfortunately. It's strange - it
works fine for Internet access, downloading files at
